Then if I lose 100% of my investment, how much have I lost?
Everything.

Sometimes its easier to describe this in terms of words, than numbers and symbols.

Everything is not that bad. Many people lose more than that on the regular stock market (using leverage).
Usually there is margin liquadation levels that are in place so you can't lose ore than 100%.
